Come and share an evening of warmth and closeness, enjoying 'Under Milk Wood', narrated by Richard Burton on the original recording, in the intimacy of the Cube auditorium.

There will be blankets, hot drinks, bring your knitting project if you like and enjoy an immersive ambience with atmospheric projections and incidental live music. Come and be part of the Under Milk Wood Community for a spell of cosy togetherness. 

There is Captain Cat, the blind sailor who dreams of drowned comrades; Mr Pugh, fantasising about murdering Mrs Pugh; Organ Morgan, obsessed with his music; Polly Garter, pining for lovers; Nogood Boyo, the lazy fisherman...

"The entire thing is about religion, the idea of death and sex," said Richard Burton. 'Under Milk Wood is about people's everyday hopesand fears, but all underscored with a Welsh musicality and mournfulness. And a Welsh mischief! It is about Wales as much as it is about anything.'
